About Culture, Kayaking and Rafting Trip to Tibet
River and Culture Journey to Tibet, the top of the world!
Rafting and Kayaking
Tibet is home to breathtaking rivers. Mt. Kailash, nestled in the western expanse of Tibet, serves as the origin of the subcontinent's four greatest rivers: the Ganges, Indus, Sutlej, and Brahmaputra. In the eastern region of Kham, green forests give rise to the sources of the Mekong and Yangtse, East Asia's two largest rivers. During the summer monsoon, Tibet's rivers swell with regular rains, unveiling a surprising range of world-class rafting and kayaking opportunities.
